Chariots
Okay we played chariots. It's a new game that John came up with. At first I was not at all happy to be playing this because I like fast paced games where ur responsible for yourself and no one elese. To warm up we did what we did with long ball so to mesure the strength of our team I made them pull me and Amrit and see our strength in face and turning. It was pretty fun warming up. After we had a contact version and we destroyed. Each player in our team had a pinny or even two. Our plan was leave the teamwork part alone and if you want to go somewhere just pull as hard as you can. We were definitely the most aggressive and used a lot of contact. So then the next round we had no contact. So we started communicating more but then we left Amrit and then there was four. This actually worked better because I took the ummm I guess chatriot. Then we communicated more and were a lot more agile. So We went perfect and got a lot of pinnys. Then on the last round where two of the "horses" are blindfolded we decided to keep Arjun as the one who can see because he can pull all of us so we had a chatrioteer 2 horses and then the main horse plan. In the need we worked so well together and kept a great winning mind while having fun.In our team we had miggy, harjot, amrit( first round ) one thing that really helped us at the last game is that I became the charioteer and Arjun became the horse that could see, because we know each other so well we knew what to do and there wasn't a huge need for instructions just because me and Arjun have a understanding of what we're capable of. the thing that we could have done better was have more teamwork in the start but after we were solid. The team work part was lacking on a lot of the teams like some of them wanted to be aggressive like us and other people in their team wanted to be defensive and that created easy prey to hunt down. I feel like using a rope is a good idea because it gives more space for movement and it feels like I'm on a chatriot( well more than being On a hula hoop and not being able to see behind u.One thing that was weird was that this was a lot more different than a average gym class but this was just as fun or even more fun!

Good post. I think you are discovering an area where you still have lots of room for growth… TEAM WORK. You admit it's not your favourite (and that's fine) but we all need to put effort in around our strengths AND our short comings. I look forward to a post about what YOU need to do in a group.. not what others should do. :) Keep it up.
